Best HDMI Cable for Video

I'm looking for opinions for the "best" HDMI cable. Primary function is video, not audio and it will be a short length 2 meters). I'm looking for the picture to "jump off" the screen. My dvd player (ARCAM DV 29) and set top cable box both have HDMI outputs, as does the TV (Sony 60 inch SXRD). I current use a passive power line conditioner (BPT 3.5). I'm looking for some feedback from people who have bought a few or tried a few cables ( so that a person can compare and contrast). Also it must pass 1080P.

Thanks for the help,

Use a 30ft bluejeans hdmi and never a problem. It is through wall...attic...to pj...never a problem even through Carolina summers.

I have read numerous reports of people using the monoprice cables. Not just hdmi but other ic's as well...total satisfaction from all accounts. Belkin silver series are getting some attention as are the new Emotiva line of cables. I just don't see spending hundreds of dollars on one cable. I'm not knocking those that do...please don't misunderstand...I personally would not spend that much particularly when it is video that is the concern.

That's an interesting find Al...Care to share which mono$ series cable you purchased/using? I just learned of them a couple years ago and purchased some highly reviewed 'cheap' rca's for connection between prepro and pwr amp...sounds fine and no reliability issues.
